"Old ginger is still spicier"! Outperforming Semiconductor and Debt Panic, Post-Buffett Era Berkshire (BRK.A.US) Hits New High Again

Zhitong Finance APP has learned that Berkshire Hathaway Class B shares rose as much as 3.2% to $543.06 during Wednesday's session, setting a new record high and surpassing the previous all-time high set on May 2, 2025. When Buffett announced his departure a year ago, the stock fell for several consecutive months; now the market has completed its first pricing of the "post-Buffett era" with a new high. It is worth noting that against the backdrop of sharp volatility in AI semiconductors and persistent corporate debt pressure, Berkshire's new high is interpreted by the market as a victory for the defensive logic.
